Breaking Benjamin Style Sus Chord Riff

By Eric Hufschmid

Hey everybody,

Today’s lesson is all about how to practically use barred sus chords. We’ve got a killer Breaking Benjamin style riff to help practice these chords. Sus chords have an ambiguous sound – neither major nor minor, and a certain darkness about them that makes them perfect for alternative rockers. We really hope you like the riff!

Good luck guys!

Your homework is just to master this riff, and try experimenting with sus chords to create a riff. Sus chords have such a dark sound; there’s really a ton of creative potential there.
